Finding Spiritual Momentum

Let’s start with a question: Is your walk with Jesus joyfully moving ahead, apathetically status quo, frustratingly stagnated, or in full retreat? If they were being honest, most believers (indeed whole churches) in our current culture would answer stagnation, status quo or 
 retreat rather than happily advancing. But here’s the deal, genuinely following Jesus is all about forward momentum in our journey with Him. In fact, it is only when our progress is straight ahead with Christ that our spiritual life can be joyful, free, powerful and satisfying. 
 When forward progress isn’t happening then we’ll become stuck in the mud of spiritual apathy, guilt, frustration and defeat. This is not what the Lord designed us for! So then, how do we keep moving onward and upward with Him? Here in Philippians 3:12-16, Scripture gives us six truths that the Holy Spirit uses to help us find joyful forward moving spiritual momentum as we follow Jesus.
